“Nicole was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of our two dogs and cat. Our younger dog had a tough couple of days of separation anxiety after we left, and she did an incredible job helping her get through it. We'd love to have Nicole watch our babies again!”


“Truffle had a blast yet again! We really appreciated the videos of our pup’s adventures. Titi also got some cuddle time during the stay. The house was very clean when we got home and Renee even mowed the grass. Thank you for taking great care of our furry friends”


“Amada took wonderful care of my pups while house sitting. She communicated well with detailed and helpful updates. Home was nice and tidy upon return. My pups were spoiled and look forward to seeing her again.”


“Christina was amazing. She took great care of our pups and our house during our trip. The house was spotless when we returned and the dogs were happy. She sent pictures of the dogs frequently and communicated very well. We will definitely work with Christina again!”


“Tori is a great dog sitter. She clearly communicates her schedule, shows up on time, sends great updates, follows care instructions (complicated for senior dogs), and treats our pups like gold. We’re very grateful. Thank you, Tori!”

“I recently booked Julia to house sit and look after my young cat while I was on vacation. My cat hasn’t been away from me for long and I was worried about leaving her. Julia was incredibly helpful and responsive, completely making me feel at ease throughout the process. She is professional, an intelligent communicator, and very gifted with animals. My cat is very shy but I could tell that she was happy and comfortable with Julia through the many pictures and videos I received. Highly recommend. Thank you Julia! I will be booking again!”


“Sammi was wonderful. She agreed to sit for us at last minute over Christmas after a sitter on another site let us down. She was truly a lifesaver as I was panicking that I wouldn't have anyone to look after our cats while we were overseas for almost two weeks. She was wonderful with our three cats, one of which has a bit of a disability. She took it all in stride and followed instructions for food and meds to a tee. She stayed over most nights and left our house clean and tidy. We returned home to very happy cats. Sammi is trustworthy, reliable and a great communicator. She sent lots of photos and videos while we were away. I would not hesitate to recommend her. Thanks Sammi!”


“Daniel was great! Short notice availability. He was very accommodating with some minor last minute requests, and also when our relatives had to drop by a few times. Consistently sent (VERY adorable!) photos with a brief note/comment every day while we were on vacation. Was good about being communicative and responding to any questions as needed. House was left pretty clean when we came back. Highly recommend!!”



“Diana is always so great with Grayson and was really flexible and accommodating this time around when our dates kept shifting. We are grateful she has taken on our cat who loves to pose for her in pictures!”


“Addie was great! Our dog can be very anxious, especially with new people and in new places, but she seemed to trust Addie very quickly and we felt much more comfortable leaving her with someone while we went out.”


“Zoe was amazing with my dog, Sadie! She kept me updated throughout the day, and sent me pictures of Sadie and her having a great time together. It’s always difficult leaving your pet, but I was happy to know that she was in great hands. I will definitely be using Zoe’s services again in the future!”


“Mya house sat for us over the holidays and was the perfect caretaker of the house and the 2 dogs. She sent lots of photos, communicated promptly and left the house in great condition. Our mini-Dachshund is a bit of a handful, but she did great with her. And, our suspicious older Corgi even warmed up to her. Thank you, Mya!”


“Whitney watched our new puppy so we could finally have a day away! We felt so comfortable and confident after our meet and greet, and our pup Luna seems to have had the best time! And we got super cute photo updates!! Bonus! Highly recommend”


“Sai stayed in our home and cat-sat our attention-addicted cat for 12 days. During this time, he gave our girl a lot of love, made sure she had all her needs met, and was responsive to any messages we sent him. Sai is trustworthy and professional. We would absolutely ask him to cat-sit for us again!”


“Korrey did a wonderful job taking care of our German Shepherd Quincy and hound mix Sydney while we were on vacation for a week. Sydney is a little skittish towards new people, but she warmed right up to Korrey - he has very calm energy. Korrey administered several medications for the dogs and also picked up the dog poop in the backyard. He followed all instructions, sent a few pictures, and I never had any issues getting in touch with him. I was nice to be on vacation and not have to worry about our pups at all!”


“Sjoribel is an incredible dog sitter!! She stayed in our home with our 2-year-old high-energy dog for a week. Sjoribel is communicative, responsive, and thoughtful. She sent us many pictures of our pup and it always made our day. Our dog was in the best hands! It felt like we were leaving our dog with family, she treated our dog like her own. We highly recommend Sjoribel, she was great to work with and we would love to have her housesit and dogsit again.”



“Katie is so absolutely lovely, our dog Stega adored her. Katie did an incredible job getting Stega out of her shell and making her feel safe while we were out of town. Katie was responsive, respectful, knowledgeable, easy to communicate with, and Stega immediately took to her. Stega is not the easiest dog to win over, so we were very grateful that she had such a warm, playful, and approachable personality. Katie also took lots of pictures, which we loved. Excited to have her back next time we travel without our beloved pup!”

Highland Park-Overlee Knolls pet parents share their Rover experiences
I couldn't be more thrilled with the care my dog received from Juliana. From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear that she had a true love for animals. She took the time to understand my dog's unique needs, quirks, and routine. I felt completely at ease knowing Louie was in such capable and caring hands. If you're looking for someone reliable, kind, and passionate about pets, look no further. I’ll definitely be booking again in the future!

Ali was wonderful with our dog Tate. She house sat for a week while we were on vacation and he usually has bad anxiety while we were gone but he had a great time and was perfectly okay. Ali did a great job taking care of our house and we would absolutely hire her again! I highly recommend her.

Liudmyla was an OUTSTANDING dog and house sitter. I am so lucky to have found her. She stayed in our house for 10 days while we were out of the country for a wedding, and it was such a relief to not have to worry about our clingy 6 month old puppy while we were gone. Liudmyla sent tons of photos and videos and was not shy to ask questions when our instructions were not clear. We will definitely be booking Liudmyla again!

Dana is a real gem! She is communicative, caring and punctual…everything you hope to experience with someone who is watching your pet or home. She even dealt with an unexpected lightning strike to a tree near my home with professionalism. I would not hesitate recommending her to anyone looking for a quality sitter.

Ellie was amazing! We were very anxious leaving Finley for a week, but he ended up being in such good hands. Ellie had great communication, was patient with our sometimes anxious and moody rescue dog, gave us helpful updates, took care of the house, and more. Couldn’t ask for a better caretaker and relieved that we have someone we can trust and book for next time!

Spencer did a great job giving us regular updates about our pets (dog and cat) while we were out of town. It was very reassuring knowing they were in good hands. They looked so happy in all of the photos he sent us so I know they had a great time. I would happily have Spencer watch our pets again.

Yiting was the most attentive and thoughtful I’ve found in my area! She was very communicative throughout the entire time and I gave her specific instructions which she followed to the letter. Even more important, my dog seemed comfortable and had all the playtime he needed while I was gone. Highly recommend
